Pure White

This is the most common form of decorating a church for a wedding. But wait a minute, common doesn’t always mean bad. A pure white church wedding can be very relaxing. Ohh we know, although you will be excited about the wedding, while walking down that aisle you are going to have knots in your stomach. Sorry to break the ice but it’s the truth. This pure white decoration will soothe your mind and relax you a bit. Besides, having a white wedding church just makes it look traditional and ohh so much peaceful and joyous.

Simplicity Rocks

Sometimes the best way to decorate a church wedding is to minimum with decoration. Of course, it may not look as appealing and the fact that some of your guests might think you are trying to save money, but the focus of wedding most of the time should be on the bride and the groom. This decoration idea will help you achieve just that.

Flowers Bring Joy

This goes without saying – flowers can truly lighten up an already joyous moment. If you look at the image below, the setting is minimal. It’s nothing extravagant and even the use of flowers are minimal but it just gives a feeling of peace and serenity. If you are looking for “joy in heart” and “ohh this is so serene” moment go for this look.

Simplicity Again

Ok you caught us. We love simple decorations. Decorations that are simple yet very charming. The image below is just one of those examples and the sun shining on the church floor just makes it even more better. A little accent doesn’t hurt but just make sure that when going simple,it’s best to stay simple while creating the main focus on the bride and the groom.

Bring The Outdoors

Gotta say we love this decoration. If it weren’t for the roof in this image, we would have thought this wedding ceremony was taking place outside. If you are a outdoor, green loving person definitely go for this look. Although a bit on the extravagant site as far as money goes, the look is still simple and very very serene.

All About The Lights

Candles, lights, flowers and everything that is beautiful can be combined in harmony during  church wedding decoration. The image below is a prime example. We are sure you almost feel like taking your slippers off and just relaxing for a bit looking at this image. Don’t do that though, you got work to do and get that church all ready for the wedding. Now get started.

Well those were some of the suggestions as far as church wedding decoration ideas go. If you have any feel free to share with us.

Fishnets

Fish nets? Really? If that’s what you are thinking you are probably not all in on a nautical wedding. If you are going to go this wedding theme a fish net is a must. Afterall a Fisherman’s paradise can be the best nautical wedding ever. So if you are going for a this theme your decoration list must include fish nets.

Seashells

Can a nautical themed wedding do without seashells? The answer is no. Anyways, if you are gathering up decoration items for your wedding, this should be the very first on your list. Seashells are without a doubt a must for a nautical wedding. And we aren’t talking about just some normal off the bat seashells, we are talking about large dazzling seashells that you see in the image below.

Boats

Another must have decoration item for a nautical wedding are boats. There are plenty of toy boats you can buy and you can place a boat on each table. Just be sure you don’t over do it. However, do make sure to purchase one that really stands out from others in order to draw focus to that one. That one particular boat should act like a fireplace in a grand room – drawing attention from everyone. We suggest this 32 inch wooden boat that will surely wow everyone.

Captain’s Bell

A nautical wedding theme demands a captain’s bell. You have got to make the groom feel like the captain of the ship, or for the bride if she is in control (in most cases it is just that way ). Take a look at the image below to see what a captain’s bell looks like and be sure to have one. You can also use this as wedding favors.

Telescope

Let’s quick go through the list. We’ve got fish net, boats, seashell, captain’sbell…we are missing something. Yup, you got it right – a telescope. For this themed wedding you have to have a telescope and be sure to grab one. We have got just the right one that will make your nautical wedding be seen from miles away.

Here are a few more quick suggestions for you on what you should include on your nautical wedding theme.

• Brass candleholders or lanterns.
• Coils of rope.
• Miscellaneous boat parts: propeller, halyards, lines etc…
• Wooden crab pots
• Anchors
• Sails
• A ship’s bell
• Seashells

Wedding Table Decoration Idea #1 : Simple Yet Beautiful

The image below shows a wedding table that is very simple, yet it is very elegant. If you are someone who plans to use this form of decoration, make sure to use candles and flowers that somewhat match the color. You don’t want to use red roses as flowers on the table and use candles that are white. The contrast would be too high and things will stand out a bit more than you would like. Use candles and flowers that compliment each other to give that subtle beauty to the table and the overall environment.

Wedding Table Decoration Idea #2 : Extravagant

Are you one of those who likes to go all out? If so, this idea is for you. If you closely look at the image below, the lamp on the table overpowers the environment. Even then, it doesn’t look too bad. However, personally we don’t prefer this cause it seems like the lamp is so overpowering that it takes the focus away. It does create a romantic feel but if you do go for this decoration, be sure to use lamps and colors that are subtle and add to the surrounding rather than totally contrasting it.

Wedding Table Decoration Idea #3 : All About The Lights

If you carefully look at the table design below, it is very well complimented with lights. White table cloth really shines when you use regular lamps (white lamps) and it brings out the table. It makes each table stand out and the beauty is totally breathtaking. In this collection this is one of our favorites. If you want to create a very soothing environment, this is an ideal choice.

Wedding Table Decoration Ideas #4 : Bare Beauty

The table decoration below is what we like to call a bare beauty. It’s not that the wedding decorator didn’t want to work or probably the people didn’t have the money to go all out. This design is a choice that we are seeing increasingly in wedding decorations. People are starting to choose the option of going very simple on table designs so the environment focuses totally on the bride and groom rather than other aspects of the wedding. After all, a wedding ceremony should be all about the bride and the groom. This is a clean design with minimal cost yet very beautiful.

Wedding Table Decoration #5 : White Is Pure

That’s right. When it comes to decorating wedding tables, white will never go out of style. White symbolizes purity and in most weddings you will see this form of table decoration. If you would like to create a “pure” feel this is the design you should go. It almost looks like you are in a hotel and not at a wedding, but trust us when the bride and the groom are in there and all the people around, the table will be the last thing on your mind.
